About

The Two-Factor plugin adds an extra layer of security to your WordPress login by requiring users to provide a second form of authentication in addition to their password. This helps protect against unauthorized access even if passwords are compromised.

Important: Each user must individually configure their two-factor authentication settings.

For more information about two-factor authentication in WordPress, see the WordPress Advanced Administration Security Guide.

For more history, see this post.

Here is a list of action and filter hooks provided by the plugin:

The plugin includes a wp two-factor WP-CLI namespace for managing two-factor authentication from the command line. All commands accept a user by ID, login, or email.

Run wp help two-factor for the full list, or wp help two-factor <command> for options and examples for a specific command.

To redirect users to a specific URL after completing the two-factor challenge, use WordPress Core built-in login_redirect filter. The filter works the same way as in a standard WordPress login flow:
